2019 Essentials

Join us for BCR Connector

The CRDS Connector event will serve to connect undergraduate students, CRDS graduates and service providers in the community. Students of the CRDS program complete practicums in community. Each practicum is designed to foster relationships between the university and community as well as to focus on a specific aspect of learning, including introduction to community practice, direct service and developing a professional identity and developing leadership skills. Students will have the opportunity to share the work that they have completed throughout the year through Poster Presentations. Community site representatives will engage with the students that they have supervised as well as having the opportunity to see examples of the other kinds of work completed by students at different levels of practicum and to engage in networking opportunities with potential future employees. We will have mentors available to discuss their work, post-graduation, as well as mock interviews with employers potentially looking to recruit our students.
